build/roms: re-add SeaGRUB build support

2023-11-01T09:30:16+00:00

it didn't work in the past, but it does work nowadays;
specifically, it only worked with libgfxinit in the past,
but not on VGA ROMs.

now it does work on VGA ROMs, tested on e6400 and t1650 so
it was enabled there.

in this setup, a special image is provided where SeaBIOS is
the main payload, but it only loads GRUB; nothing else, every.

this is called SeaGRUB. this setup is useful in cases where
the user only has a GPU that lacks libgfxinit support.

build/roms: properly print noblobs rom names

2023-10-31T22:04:33+00:00

when printing the name of the rom being created, it's
done before the check to rename based on vendorfiles
in target.cfg. this patch fixes that bug.

include/option.sh: fix i945 bootblock copy

2023-10-25T11:58:52+00:00

it wasn't being copied right

the roms under elf/ were being copied, but not the ones
under bin/ - i need to audit it further

for now, i run modify_coreboot_roms from build/roms
instead of update/trees

so, the ones under elf/ no longer have bootblocks copied.
it's only done in bin/

build/roms: copy base rom again for u-boot

2023-10-23T23:14:01+00:00

when building only for u-boot, the current script
works just fine. however, when building for other
payloads in additional to u-boot, the final u-boot
stage fails because other payloads are already
inserted via cbfs.

when we build u-boot, we do that last because we want
u-boot setups to only be u-boot, nothing else.

this patch enables qemu x86 to build properly with
u-boot.

20231021hotfix: replace x_ with err in some places

2023-10-22T11:34:45+00:00

keymaps weren't being set in keymay.cfg of cbfs, due
to use of x_ in the rom script, and x_ doesn't handle
quotes or spaces in arguments well.

i'm going to remove use of x_ and xx_ (it's in my todo),
for next release.

for now, hot patch the release. i've gone through and
replaced use of x_ with || err, in some places.

not just the keymap.cfg command, but others too. in case
there are more issues we missed.

this commit is being tagged "20231021fix" and i'm using
this tag to re-build the 20231021 release. i'll just
replace the tarballs in rsync and add errata to the news
page announcing the release. all i did was break peoples
umlauts, i didn't brick their machines fortunately!

very minor bug. anyway, x_/xx_ is a great idea, but sh
isn't really designed for that style of programming. i'll
go back to using just || err in the next release.

lbmk: use 2-level directory structure in script/

2023-10-20T00:00:38+00:00

as opposed to the current 3-level structure.

recent build system simplifications have enabled
this change, thus:

./build fw coreboot -> ./build roms
./build fw grub -> ./build grub
./build fw serprog -> ./build serprog
./update project release -> ./update release
./update project trees -> ./update trees
./update vendor download -> ./vendor download
./update vendor inject -> ./vendor inject

alper criticised that the commands were too long,
so i made them shorter!
